The Clean Vehicle Program allows solo drivers in vehicles that meet clean fuel and emission standards to use the Express Lanes without paying a toll. The Utah Department of Transportation may issue Clean Vehicle Passes and Permits to a limited number vehicle that meet these standards.
Solo drivers of electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and alternative-fuel vehicles are permitted access to the UDOT Express Lanes with a Clean Vehicle Pass and Permit, issued by UDOT, through September 29, 2025. See the FAQs for a list of qualifying vehicles.
After the first 6 months, the savings continue at 7-Eleven. Save a minimum of 2 cents per litre off the pump price on regular fuel grades and diesel and 4 cents per litre off the pump price on premium fuel grades at 7-Eleven*.
The first fuel for Rooppur 1's initial load has been formally accepted by the Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission (BAEC) after an inspection at the Novosibirsk Chemical Concentrates Plant (NCCP) in Russia. Meanwhile, installation of the unit's eight heat exchangers has been completed at the plant site in Bangladesh.
The final protocol and licences that will allow BAEC to take delivery of the fuel for the 1200 MWe VVER pressurised water reactor - one of two being built at the site 160 kilometres from Dhaka - were signed earlier this year. Delivery of the fuel is expected to take place in September. Similar fuel is already operating in VVER-1200 reactors at the Leningrad, Novovoronezh and Belarus (Ostrovets) nuclear power plants.
TVEL Quality Director Alexander Bukhvalov said the company has produced an "advanced and efficient" nuclear fuel for Rooppur, taking customer preferences into account throughout the process from pre-production to fuel manufacturing and supply to the power plant. "I am positive that our fuel will once again prove the highest quality and reliability level of Russian nuclear technologies," he said.
"Implementation of Rooppur NPP construction project is going just as planned," Alexey Deriy, ASE Vice President and director of the Rooppur construction project, said. "Rosatom Engineering Division is fulfilling its obligations in the full scope and, by the time of nuclear fuel arrival, the construction site of unit 1 will be ready to accept it and ensure storage, meeting all the safety requirements prior to the stage of loading into the reactor."
Separately, Rosatom announced that eight heat exchangers had been installed at Rooppur. The eight metal structures - each weighing over 32 tonnes - are part of the plant's passive heat removal system (PHRS).

On March 9, 2023, Barrasso spoke at a full committee hearing to examine the nuclear fuel cycle discussing Nuclear Fuel Security Act and how it will help prevent American reliance on Russian imports for uranium.
On April 7, 2022, Barrasso introduced the Fueling Our Nuclear Future Act to accelerate the availability of domestically produced HALEU for advanced reactors. It directs DOE to partner with industry to establish a domestic HALEU enrichment capability. It also directs DOE to make HALEU available from their inventories to ensure advanced reactors have the fuel they need until U.S. commercial enrichment is available.

Schumer and other Democrats said the Republican bill would repeal a new $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund and other parts of the climate and health care law passed by Democrats last year. The bill also would eliminate a new tax on methane pollution.
Fuel Point PLUS is an automatic vehicle identification (AVI) solution where the vehicle itself is the means of authorization, recognized through a RFID tag installed next to the vehicle fuel inlet, identifying the vehicle and authorizing fueling. The result is fast refueling with no need for cash, card, or coupon payment.
Fuel Point PLUS ensures that fuel only goes to the authorized vehicle and charging the appropriate account. Removing the nozzle and trying to fuel another vehicle immediately suspends fueling activity.
Deployment is simple, as the vehicle elements are designed to take minutes to install, with simple station installation. Fuel Point PLUS is superior to fleet card/fuel card payment as it creates clear value to both the fuel retailers as well as the fleet managers, by creating a tie-in to the station and a superior service experience.
The nano Nozzle Reader (nNR) is designed to withstand harsh environments. This compact, self-contained unit fits directly onto the fueling nozzle and doesn't require wiring or an external power source.
Please note: The use of a 15/64" drill bit is mandatory for this to function as intended. Do not use a larger or smaller bit.Looking to add a larger or second fuel pump in your tank? These sealed bulkhead studs provide the proper solution for passing new high current wiring through your fuel bucket or any panel. Simply drill a 15/64" hole in your top, and crimp your new wiring.The Boost Monkey Electrical Bulkhead kit contains 4 stud kits. Each stud is CNC machined from Grade 304 stainless steel to spec. The included nylon sleeve is E-85 and gasoline safe, and prevents conductivity by isolating the stud. T
"In a time marked by rising fuel costs, it is essential for our taxicab drivers to be able to get residents and visitors where they need to go without worrying about whether or not they can afford to put gas in their tanks," said Mayor Lightfoot. "Through these surcharges, we will be able to relieve some of the fuel burdens facing taxicab drivers as well as support the industry as a whole."
The Chicago Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection (BACP) oversees licensing and operations of the public vehicle industry. BACP works closely with the taxicab to create fair and equitable regulations. Recent discussions with taxi companies, drivers, and independent owner-operators led to the need and decision of a fuel surcharge for taxicab fares. Two steps must take place before taxicab drivers may start to charge passengers a fuel surcharge fee: 1) when the AAA average fuel price for the past month is or exceeds $5.00 per gallon and 2) BACP disseminates a City of Chicago public vehicles industry notice.
The fuel surcharge will offset the costs of gasoline for taxicabs and also incentivize additional taxicabs to go into service. In 2009 and 2010, fuel surcharges were implemented when fuel prices increased. BACP initiated fuel surcharges of either $0.50 or $1.00 per taxicab trip.

The bills passed with only Republican votes, 62-35 for the first measure and 63-35 for the second. Each bill has a state Senate counterpart. If the Senate also votes along party lines, that could signal the probability of a veto from Gov. Tony Evers.
The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is among the largest renewable energy mandates in the world. The policy is enforced using tradeable credits that implicitly subsidize biofuels and tax fossil fuels. The RFS relies on these taxes and subsidies to be passed through to consumers to stimulate demand for biofuels and decrease demand for gasoline and diesel. Using station-level prices for E85 (a high-ethanol blend fuel) from over 450 retail fuel stations, we show that pass-through of the ethanol subsidy is, on average, complete. However, we find that full pass-through takes four to six weeks and that local market structure of gasoline stations influences both the speed and overall level of pass-through.
Several European countries have implemented temporarily fuel tax reductions in 2022 to relieve the financial burden on their citizens. This paper provides estimates of the pass-through rates as well as the effect on retail margins for France, Germany and Italy. Using a unique data set containing daily consumer prices for gasoline and diesel, we employ a staggered Difference-in-Differences (DiD) design. Our results show a heterogeneous pass-through of the fuel tax reductions depending on the country and on the type of fuel. Nevertheless, we find a full- or even over-shifting of the tax cuts in all three countries. These findings also have important implications for the effective design of unconventional fiscal policy as well as for competition policy in the fuel market.
